How often should you water your bird of paradise?During the growing season, the bird of paradise flower can be watered 1-2 times a week. When the weather is better, the water evaporates faster and you can water it once a day. If you care for it in winter, the number of waterings should be reduced appropriately. You can water it once every 1-2 weeks. When watering, water it thoroughly, but do not let water accumulate in the potting soil. It is generally best to use well water. How to water bird of paradiseObserve the leaves : If you want to determine whether the bird of paradise is lacking or having too much water, you can observe it from the leaves of the plant. Too much water will cause water accumulation in the soil, leading to root rot of the bird of paradise, resulting in yellowing leaves. Lack of water will cause the leaves to curl. Bird of Paradise Watering Tips1. Watering during the dormant period : Watering should be controlled after September every year. Since the roots of the bird of paradise are fleshy roots, which contain a lot of water and are drought-resistant, watering should be appropriate and not too much. At this time, a thin layer of water should be poured every 4 to 5 days, and the water temperature should be the same as that in the room. Just keep the soil in the pot dry. 2. Reduce the amount of watering in winter : Bird of Paradise will be in a dormant period in winter, and its growth will stagnate. The soil should be kept relatively dry. It only needs to be watered once every 10-15 days. The watering time should be done at noon, and the water temperature should be kept similar to the ambient temperature to prevent the plant from being frozen. What to do if you overwater your bird of paradise1. Ventilation When the bird of paradise is watered frequently, if the situation is not serious, it can be placed in a ventilated environment to speed up the evaporation of water in the pot soil. If the water accumulation is serious, it is necessary to change the pot in time or remove the plant from the pot, dry the soil and replant it. 2. Increase drainage When watering the bird of paradise, it is important to note that it should not be watered on rainy days. It is best to do it in sunny weather. Keep the air circulation of the potting soil, and the air permeability and water permeability of the potting soil must be good, so that the roots can fully absorb water and promote stronger growth. |
